"Lord Wen, there is no need for such formalities." Gu Chen handed the horse's reins to the soldier standing nearby, then helped Wen Ziyun up from his bow.

Gu Chen also noticed that, compared to the last time, Wen Ziyun was more respectful to him. This was a benefit brought by his increased strength, causing Gu Chen to sigh inwardly.

Wen Ziyun smiled and said, "Congratulations to Lord Gu for obtaining the Jade Spirit Ice Liquid, advancing in cultivation. It seems becoming a Commander is just around the corner."

Gu Chen shook his head and said, "Lord Wen, you jest. Becoming a Commander is not that easy."

Positions of high rank such as this were strictly regulated in the Jing Tian Department, requiring substantial merits or passing rigorous assessments.

Reaching the Gang Qi Realm or possessing the combat power of the Gang Qi Realm did not immediately qualify one to become a Commander.
